Project Ownership
Full lifecycle project ownership
Owned the full project lifecycle: capital planning and prioritization, need definition, feasibility and scope development, engineering and AFE justification, procurement and vendor coordination, construction sequencing and field oversight, commissioning, turnover, and post-startup support. Connected operating requirements with technical scope, funding decisions, execution readiness, and the needs of operations and maintenance.

- Risk and engineering control
Aging chillers create interruption and emergency-repair exposure. The replacement configuration is three 160-ton production units and a separate 250-ton backup, replacing two 110-ton and one 60-ton machines.

Connected operating requirements with technical scope, funding decisions, execution readiness, and the needs of operations and maintenance.
modeled demand and the roughly 78-ton peak thermal deficit, coordinated pumps and recirculation, and developed chiller staging and runtime balancing. Operating visibility and process-load monitoring connected the three 160-ton production chillers with the way the plant used cooling capacity.
